Listen to 'Dance w Me' from Emmy the Great's forthcoming new album, Second Love

"I made so many lasting relationships through this album, I wanted to insert them into the music, like code," she says.

Emma-Lee Moss, aka Emmy the Great has announced a new album called Second Love. This follow-up to her 2012 album Virtue will be available from 11th March 2016 via Bella Union. Moss has shared the first glimpse of her upcoming album, a track called 'Dance w Me', to which you can listen below (under which you'll find the album's tracklist).

"That song is one of the ones that came to me as I was doing the thing in the song, if that makes sense? It popped into my head in the middle of this eventful night out, and I couldn’t shake it. A couple of weeks later I was in my friend Simon’s apartment and I asked if we could record something. This recording of the song has a lot of the features from that first spontaneous demo. It also has a lot of my friends’ voices on it. You’ll hear Beth and Kristen (aka Du Blonde and O Karmina) laughing about something with Dave (McCracken) during the guest vocals sessions they were in on, possibly Gabriel (Bruce) as well, who was there. You’ll also hear my dear LA housemate and members of her family saying “Dance with me,” which I recorded at my Leaving-for-New-York dinner. I think I also accuse someone of looking at their phone too much. It was important to me to keep all these moments of chatter across the record, because to me they were the moments that actually made this album worth finishing, in the end. I made so many lasting relationships through this album, I wanted to insert them into the music, like code."

And that's that. See the bottom of this post for a few Emmy the Great US tour dates, too.
